I stayed with Krissie just recently and i must say her home is lovely. I felt very at home and any questions i had Krisse was very prompt with answering. You are welcomed to cook , not to mention Krissie has a whole array of spices! i would recommend any of my friend's to stay at Krissie's. i will definitely be going back in the near future.

Krissy 's Loft is a great place to stay, it is exactly as it appears in the pictures. Krissy was very kind to give us a lot of information on how to get around and useful instructions. She even said it was ok for us to eat what she had in her fridge. The LOFT is a little far from the center of Washington but it is very easy to get around with public transportation since there is a bus stop across the street. The neighborhood does not feel like the safest place at night but it is OK. My family and me had a great time and we definitely recommend Krissy's place.

Great space and great location. Krissie was a gracious host and even helped us out in finding great local places to eat. The owner of the cafe downstairs was also very nice and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

krissie was a joy to work with, she was very helpful and even though we arrived late--1am--she was available by phone to buzz us into the building with no complaint.
the apartment was amazing! huge open space with tons of light. the bathroom was stocked with towels and little essentials, which was a good thing since we forgot our toothpaste :-/ the bed was super comfy and the fridge was stocked with coffee and breakfast goodies.
krissie left a very cool book of what to do around the area as well as how to get in and around the dc area. getting to downtown dc was a breeze and the bustop to the train is right outside her door. i would definitely stay there again!! thank you krissie for making our stay in dc super fabulous!

I arrived late in the evening with 2 traveling friends at Krissie's place, which is a new building populated by creative types who love big clean spaces. We walked in her apartment and were in awe as soon as we turned on the light. The place has really high ceilings and a very modern feel. It was instant comfort and we needed it after a 5 hour drive.
Krissie herself is a wonderful person. We never met, just spoke on the phone and she was extremely flexible with the changing times of our arrival, as well as very informative with our queries.
We relaxed a bit in the apartment and then went out to eat at an AMAZING place called Franklin's around the corner that brews it's own tasty beer, with lots of selection, and makes great barbecue. Go for the meat loaf, the ribs, or the bleu cheese burger. Their cooked meat is just delicious. I wish I had a place like that near my house.
We only stayed one evening, but I would definitely stay at Krissie's again.

Our family of 4 greatly enjoyed our first stay using airbnb. We spent a week in the apartment and enjoyed the convenient location just outside the District. We were able to take a short drive to the Metro each day and park in a new ramp by the Rhode Island Ave Red Line station. This was cheaper and faster than catching a cab or a bus since there were 4 of us.
Noise was not an issue at all and the neighbors were all friendly the few times we met them coming in or out. It was a short walk to the free parking lot near the building, but certainly not a problem. We were able to unload and reload the car easily with metered parking out front.
DC was fun and it was great to see all the sights with the kids. We walked or took the Metro almost everywhere, which was good for us. We would have liked a couple more days to see a few more things, but we're not sure our feet could have handled it!
The only negative from our stay was a little difficulty in getting the keys, as there was some miscommunication between Krissie and her friend regarding where we'd find the keys. It was solved without too much trouble, though.
Overall, we all enjoyed our experience and Krissie was good about staying in touch before and during our stay to be sure all was well. She also has a nice notebook with helpful info that travelers might need to get them started. We would all recommend her apartment to those looking for a place to stay!

Great live/work space (the building is an “artspace” project). The kitchen was great for food prep with a fantastic organic co-op just down the street. Krissie’s Guildbook and maps were very useful for a great stay in and around DC. Street parking wasn’t a problem and the neighborhood was welcoming.

Krissie's place gave us a good landing pad to visit DC. We had a rental car so we could conveniently (15 min. or so) be in the heart of DC. Her space is fully stocked to provide you with all you need to prepare meals, read a book, or watch a movie. If you want an open-modern loft experience with close proximity to the city this is your place. The only issue we had was neighbor noise. Krissie was very responsive to take care of the noise issues, but it wasn't ideal.

Krissie was awesome, the loft looked just like it did in the pictures! Very close to everything we wanted to go to. It was very easy to get into the apartment, she had everything ready so we just dropped off our stuff and explored DC! We texted her about anything we needed and got a prompt response, she even had many recommendations about transportation and where to eat. Definitely stay here!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Krissie's loft. Public transportation is easily accessible from the loft. Once we got the bus schedule figured out, we did minimal waiting at the bus stop across the street. Krissie was very accomodating throughout our stay. She facilitated our late night check-in with ease, and periodically checked in on us to see if we needed anything. She has a fantastic binder full of transportation, dining, and entertainment info for the area. This was very helpful. We would not hesitate to stay there again. This was our first airbnb experience, and we are hooked. Thanks again, Krissie.

I have known and worked with Krissie M for 12 years and have stayed in her apartment. Krissie's home is very warm and inviting. She is very accommodating to individual needs and pretty laid back. Her neighbors and neighborhood are nice with a lot of green but also with a great supermarket. The community is indeed a community where people know each other and say hello. Krissie travels quite a bit and her apt. is available for long stretches of time so staying there would be good for anyone looking for shorter or longer terms stays.

Krissie is an awesome, creative, community minded woman. Her space is spacious, clean, organized and equipped with the basics needed to stay for short or long periods. The tenants of the building are friendly and helpful, also creatives. There is a great healthy grocery a few blocks away, and a lovely dance and community center, Joe's Movement Emporium. Close to bus and subways. Accessible to the city and a bit more affordable.
